How goes the development of JME3?

I am sorry if this pisses anyone off. I am not proficient in programming yet, but I was just wondering if anyone could explain to me how far along JME3 is?



I am very interested. Thanks!

This is a hard question to answer, because you need to know what you're trying to accomplish before having estimates on how much you've already accomplished. So, to answer simply: lots of work has already been done, and the engine is progressing well. But it still doesn't have all the features of jME1/2 that developers are accustomed to.

I figured momoko_fan would take this one on, but I should've figured he would be reluctant to give an answer that will inevitably be highly ambiguous. So the thing is, we got four developers working on the core (currently graphics, threading, gamestates and android support I believe) with 1+ on the way. Additionally we got me and Skye as managers, me dealing with a lot of associates and PR stuff, while Skye is arranging all sorts of neat stuff behind the scenes like setting up nightly builds for us. Development is going well.



As far as progress measurements go though, there is really no easy way of putting it. Let's just say, a lot of cool stuff has already been implemented, but we haven't even reached the point where we are making set milestones for ourselves yet, which should reflect on our status in development.



You didn't piss anyone off :slight_smile:

Quite the contrary I think , posts like that must please the developpers !!

thanks for the replies!



I am glad to hear that the development of this new engine coming along nicely.



If there is anything I can do for you guys in the ways of 3d models for any test classes feel free to let me know and I will see what I can do, I would love to help you guys in development but sadly 3d models are all I can offer.



Have a great day.

How about support for MRT in JME3? Are you planning to implement it soon?
